BoDEN, March Thereafter you must
say s'Judge" Boden.
The soft, mild weather of the past two
weeks signifies that the meadow lark
and blue Jay will soon greet us with
their chivalrous song.
This is q busy time among live farm
ers. Seed cleaning and the preparing of
machinery are the order of the day.
Several Of our citizens who have been
corresponding with their friends in the
east inform us that the emigration to this
town in the spring will exceed that of
any previous year. Let them come, for
there Is still some first-class land here
that can be secured either by purchase
or entry.
MI. Dick Shea. desires us to state that
he wishes to purchase the Scotch collie
advertised in the INTER-OCEAN last
week. Dick fenced a quarter section
last year with seven dogs and q tame
badger, and from the fact that there are
two pounds established here this year,
he anticipates the necessity of an addi-
tional canine to keep his bulls from being
pounded and in%pounded.
At the annual election of last Tuesday
every mothers son who is clothed with
the right to cast a legal ballot was pres
ent. The election of a corps of officials
that cannot be excelled IN any particu-
lar, even in good looks, was the result.
A full vote was polled. BEECHER.

A Safe Heater for Trans.
Observation-Disclosures. Rockville. Pa.

The question Of safe heating Of railway
cars has been solved, we think, by w.
E. Depp, Of Brookvilie, Pa, who has de-
vised an apparatus, for which he has APP
piled for letters patent, to heat passenger
cars, or any other kind of railway cars,
with hot air derived from the locomotive.
1t is practicable, efficient, simple and in
expensive, and IL worthy of an examin-
alton by all persons interested in car
heating, not only in view Of saving their
property from being burned in case of
accident, but in the comfort and safety
of the lives OF their patrons.

chicago le7 years Ago.

There has been Of late, and frequently
during the last few years, 9 good deal Of
discussion as t q the name "Chicago," Its
spelling, meaning, pronunciation, etc.
Mr.. Lord in the following letter, printed
in the:C Chicago Tribune of the It'll inst,
proves that the namew was spelled Che-ka-
kou l67 years ago and the pronunciation
therefor very nearly what 1t is now:
DEVILS LAKE., OAK. March 2.mAfteF
of the name Chicago in your issue
the 18th ult. I have made q tracing from
an old map In my possession published
by H. Mol, near the Strand, London, in
$780, t'according to the newest and most
exact\ observations" It is mainly q
French map, and is largely copied from
one published in Paris in 17l6, "Done by
| Mons. Delisle."
You will observe by the tracing, which
map, that Chicago was in l720 the Land
carriage of Chekakou." You will also
notice in the northwest corner of the
sketch, the "Land carriage Of Ouiscon-
sine"-where Think the town of Portage
now is, which seems to preserve the
meaning of the old name. Note also the
lead mines,"" near where Galena now is.
The early French voyageurs In their bat
teaux and bark canoes used to start from
Montreal, ascend the Ottawa until they
could reach q portage connecting them
with waters discharging into Lake. HUI
ron, thence through Georgian bay to
Mackinac, thence by both shores Of
Lake Michigan to the LAND carriage OF
C%hekakou," or by the way of Green bay
las now known) to the LAND carriage Of
O%uisconsine." Bythese'. land carriages
they reached the Mississippi, which they
followed northward to st. Anthony's
Falls (Minneapolis) and southwark to
the Gulf Of Mexico. carrying with them
their little traffic, the French tricolor,
and the Roman Catholic religion. christ.
ening all the points with the names OF
saints, which In most instances still cling
to them.
The title to the old map from which
make the within tracing is ''a new map
of the north parts of America, claimed
by France under ye names Of louisiana,
Mississippi, Canada and New France,
with ye adjoining territories of England
and SPAIN" HENRY w. LORD.

WASHINGTON, March THE last night
of the session Of congress there were
tremendous efforts made to get the
Dawes bill for the opening Of the Sioux
reservation before the house. Honor to
whom honor is due. N. G. Ordway
worked for that bill better than any one
would have supposed that he would or
could. He saw Carlisle, Randall, Hol-
man and every other man who is likely
to prove an o~bstructlonist. He corralled
Springer, Of Illinois. and changed him
from . bitter enemy to- working friend
Of the bill. Finally at about 5 O'Clock
in the morning the bill was brought up
and unanimous consent was asked for
It's passage. Several speeches were
made in favor Of the measure and moth.
ing against it. Just as the speaker was
about to call for vote on the matter
up rose Holman, of Indiana, and shout

He sat there and permitted all sorts Of
jobbery to go through unquestioned, but
when any meritorious measure came up
he shouted II object" You know that
at the latter end of a session bills can
be taken from the house calendar and
passed by unanimous consent. One
single objection renders it necessary to
put . bill hack in its regular order and
thus prevents It's passage. This objec-
